Good idea, although I'd have preferred the use of ':' rather than '--' in the titles, as I've never seen '--' used before.

Btw what/who is "A.Q. Khan"? Dan100 (Talk) 14:22, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Doesn't matter to me. The double-dashes are just how most library catalogs do library of congress subject headings, but it really doesn't matter to me how it is done. A.Q. Khan was the "father of the Pakistani nuclear bomb" who recently was discovered to be a major nuclear trafficker. He comes up occasionally as new countries are found to have had connections with his network (I just thought of it because the most recent TIME magazine features him on the cover). --Fastfission 02:50, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I've now realised that I didn't recognize '--' because it's an American usage. I think I can get used to it! Similarly, TIME magazine isn't widely read here in the UK so A.Q. Khan isn't quite so well known :) Dan100 (Talk) 17:59, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Human Genetics[edit]

Added an image and category marker. Do we have articles on human genetics? I haven't found any yet. MikeEdwards 06:53, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

No, but it'll be useful for when we do :) Dan100 (Talk) 17:59, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Mars[edit]

Does the research of Mars and the search for water and life there justify a template of it's own? IMO it does, but I'm not all that familiar with the concept. -- Redge (Talk) 09:05, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Awesome idea.[edit]

I wish I'd known about this earlier. It's a great idea and I'd love to tackle it. I kind of feel like some of the graphics are a little intrusive and clunky, but that can certainly be resolved. There are a ton of issues that come up all the time here. irid:t 16:12, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
